Kyogre XY51/211 · XY Black Star Promos

Kyogre is Pokédex #382, generation 3 (Hoenn). Kyogre is a Basic Water Pokémon with 130 HP.

Kyogre sits at XY51/211 in XY Black Star Promos, position 51 of 216. Before it is XY50 Pangoro, and after it is XY52 Groudon. The set belongs to the XY series. It was released on 12 October 2013. The printed size is 211. This checklist is longer, at 216 cards. The listed rarity is Promo.

The attack Spring Tides lists 30× damage. The cost is Water, Colorless. Flip a coin until you get tails. This attack does 30 damage times the number of heads. Ocean Cyclone is another attack lists 80 damage. The cost is Water, Water, Water, Colorless. This attack does 10 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 4. The flavor text reads "It is said to have widened the seas by causing downpours. It had been asleep in a marine trench."

Kyogre (#382) has 32 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 22 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Kyogre ex 1/40 in Nintendo Black Star Promos (2003). That card is named Kyogre ex, while this one is Kyogre. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. Both list the rarity Promo. Hiromichi Sugiyama illustrated that card, and Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 4. 27 other cards of Kyogre list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Mitsuhiro Arita. I count 721 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

XY Black Star Promos set binder is where a full XY Black Star Promos set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Kyogre can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mitsuhiro Arita cards and Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza. I still need this card.
